Chapter 2154: What is Received and Paid**
Chapter 2154 Getting and Giving
Little DuPont looked envious, "Mr. Zhang Lan, I believe that this time your Alice Group has firmly established itself in the military light vehicle market in the United States...... Oh no, it should be the military mid-size car market that is. ”
According to the division of military wheeled vehicles by the Mi Army, military vehicles such as the Hummer 998 are classified as ultra-light military vehicles, and their status is the same as that of the Willis Jeep equipped by the Mi Army during World War II.
As a major arms dealer in the United States, the DuPont consortium naturally has its own eyes in the army, and everything that happens in the army, including the use of the weapons and equipment of the DuPont consortium in the army and the reaction of the troops to these things, is fed back to the DuPont consortium, so that the DuPont consortium can make timely adjustments and produce more suitable weapons for the soldiers of the United States. How would the soldiers react to this tactical vehicle that they had never thought of before? Is it dismissive? Is it bland?
But in any case, they did not expect that it would be such a result, that the fighters were so ecstatic about the equipment of this car that they threatened the Ministry of Defense to refuse to perform the task if they did not equip this car?
"Until now, I don't know what the name of this car is given to him by the Ministry of Defense." As soon as she talked about this, Zhang Lan couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
"I really know this, as far as I know, it seems that the Ministry of Defense has given you the name of this car SuperHighMobilityMulti-PurposeWheeledVehicle." Little Dupont's expression...... It's hard to describe, it's very painful, it's very distorted, it's very aggrieved, it's like the poop has arrived at the door, but when I want to squat on the tuba, I find that there is no squatting pit, and I have to hold it back.
“superhighmobilitymulti-purposewheeledvehicle?”
Zhang Lan understood why little DuPont had such an expression of not being able to find a place to, because Zhang Lan's face was suddenly very weird, except for crying and laughing or crying and laughing, the official name of the current Humvee military vehicle in the United States is highmobility multi-purpose wv, that is, military high-mobility multi-purpose wheeled vehicle, and now the car provided by Alice Group to the American soldiers is called a super military high-mobility multi-purpose wheeled vehicle, That is, superhighmobilitymulti-purposewheeledvehicle, if translated into a more understandable name, wouldn't it become a super Hummer?
"Super Hummer?" Zhang Lan recited the English string of superhighmobilitymulti-purposewheeledvehicle twice, and couldn't help but burst out with a foul sentence, "I'll go!" Why can't you lose anything with Hummer at any time? ”
This is indeed depressing enough, starting from the earliest Hummer, Hummer has gone through four generations, but these have nothing to do with Zhang Lan, no matter how Hummer is, it is also someone else's business, but now his own things are also called Hummer, Zhang Lan can't explain it: Super Hummer? That's also a Hummer bad? I haven't heard of a Super Hummer that can be called a Hummer.
Little Dupont wanted to laugh very much, but he didn't laugh out loud, he understood very well why Zhang Lan had such an expression, it is estimated that he was replaced by himself, and his expression was not much better, Super Hummer? I worked hard to get a car, and finally became synonymous with which car before, people who don't know may still think that Mi Jun is now newly equipped with this, well, Super Hummer is newly developed by General Motors, used to replace the previous Hummer car. It's easy to understand, otherwise why would it be called a Super Hummer? Right?
Easy to understand is easy to understand, but when I think that whenever others talk about Super Hummer, everyone's first reaction is General Motors, Zhang Lan can't accept it: why did the buddies work so hard to get something to advertise for General Motors...... Did Ya's general give my buddies advertising money? …,
"For such a trivial matter," DuPont Jr. wanted to laugh, "have you forgotten that you Alice Group are actually the majority shareholder of the Humvee military vehicle?" ”
Well? As soon as DuPont Jr. said this, Zhang Lan also reacted, that's right, one of the shareholders of Hummer military vehicles is General Motors, but in fact, the largest shareholder of Hummer military vehicles is actually Alice Group, but because of the need to take into account the reaction of the US government and military, Alice Group has always been secretly holding shares in the issue of Hummer military vehicles, and in terms of external publicity, the ownership of Hummer has always belonged to General Motors, but this is not the case.
Over the years, because he did not fully hold shares in the military vehicle production department of Hummer, Zhang Lan neglected the management of the Hummer brand, so much so that he forgot the fact that he was actually the major shareholder of Hummer military vehicles, and even had to be reminded by DuPont Jr., which made Zhang Lan more and more depressed.
"This is really ......" Zhang Lan shook her head, not knowing what to say.
"In this way, if you want, I can give you the Hummer on behalf of our DuPont family, so that you don't have to worry about others misunderstanding, Hummer has become the brand of the Alice Group, and I believe that when everyone talks about Super Hummer in the future, no one will think of General Motors." Little Dupont said jokingly.
In fact, he wasn't really joking, if Zhang Lan agreed, he would really give the Hummer to Zhang Lan without hesitation, not a penny, but what he was worried about was whether Zhang Lan would want it...... Don't give it away for free? Wouldn't that be a fool? Ordinary people will definitely think so, but if Zhang Lan really agreed, Zhang Lan would be a fool.
"Give it to me for free?" Zhang Lan smiled and shook his head, "I don't want it, the price of asking for your Humvee is too great." ”
In recent years, Hummer has not done very well in terms of civilian vehicles, following the sale of Hummer H1, the seemingly beautiful H2 is actually barely able to protect the capital, as for H3, it is a loss of money at all...... In this way, Hummer Motors would like to thank our country for their contribution.
There is a joke that says that the Hummer H2 is actually developed for our people, because more than half of the Hummer H2 has been sold to our Republic, of course, it is said that among the Hummer H2 sold to our Republic, nearly half of the cars have been bought by friends in the mountains & west, and it is said that the friends of the mountains & the west are asking when they buy cars, "How much can this car hold?" When buying a car with half of the people, they asked, "How much is this car?" "It's very different, it's very domineering.
But what everyone doesn't know is that in fact, over the years, the military vehicle production department of the Hummer has been doing a prosperous business, and the Mi Army has a large number of military Humvees being replaced every year, so that the production dates of the Hummer's military vehicle production department are full and they make a lot of money, Zhang Lan also remembered that on the eve of his return, there was already news that the civilian vehicle department of the Hummer, because of serious losses, the military vehicle department refused to take out money to subsidize the civilian vehicle department, and General Motors has planned to sell the Hummer brand. As for the later development, Zhang Lan doesn't know.
If GM really plans to sell the Humvee, it is estimated that many Chinese people will be happy and think that the country should try to buy the Humvee, but they don't know that the Humvee that GM intends to sell is just a civilian Humvee production line, a military Humvee? That's the cash cow that people are now, not to mention whether the Ministry of Defense of the United States will agree, just talk about GM and the company, GM is not stupid, and there is no lack of heart, will they sell this thing to us?
If Zhang Lan takes over the Hummer brand, in order to reshape the brand alone, it will take more than a billion dollars of money and energy, but if you want to earn these billions back, you don't have to think about it in a few years, if Alice Group does not have a high-end off-road vehicle brand, but the problem is that Alice Group has its own high-end off-road vehicle brand, although this brand is still very young, but the strength is not bad, Even the Mercedes-Benz G-Class, which is considered to have surpassed the title of the king of off-road performance, is not too much of a problem to surpass Unimog if it is properly modified, so is it necessary to take over this mess? …,
Seeing that Zhang Lan didn't mean this, little DuPont was slightly disappointed in his heart, from the bottom of his heart, he actually hoped that Zhang Lan could take over the Humvee civilian vehicle department, but since Zhang Lan had already made up his mind, he had nothing to do...... Come hard? He really didn't have the guts.
After saying this, little DuPont didn't plan to continue going around in circles with Zhang Lan, although he knew that his actions actually gave Zhang Lan the upper hand, but he couldn't care so much...... Zhang Lan had the upper hand when he spoke first, but even if he didn't speak, did he have the upper hand? The huge aircraft carrier under his feet, which is even more advanced and huge than the most advanced aircraft carrier in the United States, reminds little DuPont all the time, in front of Zhang Lan, in front of the strong strength of Alice Group. It's better not to use those tricks and tricks.
In this world, it is always the fist that determines the right to speak.
"Mr. Zhang Lan, I am curious to know, in what field does Alice Group want to cooperate with our DuPont consortium this time?"
This guy finally can't help it? But he can endure it until now, it can be regarded as quite capable, Zhang Lan laughed secretly in his heart, just now he pulled Xiao Dupont for a while, in order to see how long Xiao Dupont can hold back, this guy really deserves to be the son of the oldest family in the United States, and it is really unexpected for Zhang Lan to be able to hold it until now.
"What do you think of chemistry, Mr. DuPont Jr." Zhang Lan said with a smile.
"Chemistry?" With Zhang Lan's words, little Dupont's voice trembled.
The field of chemistry covers a very wide range, but for the DuPont consortium, in fact, the scope of the chemical industry of the DuPont consortium is very narrow, and that is: the arms industry!
The economic strength of the DuPont consortium mainly comes from the chemical industry and military enterprises, and the most inseparable thing for military enterprises is explosives, which is naturally a chemical product, and the chemical industry is the foundation of the DuPont consortium's survival, and it is also difficult for any other company in the world to match...... Except for the Alice Group.
The magical Alice Group, after they appeared and broke into the sight of the DuPont Consortium, the world in the eyes of the DuPont Consortium has completely changed, after the appearance of the Alice Group, the DuPont Consortium was surprised to find that they are no longer the only one in the chemical industry, on the contrary, the Alice Group has become a benchmark in the field of the chemical industry, and it seems that overnight, the world's top chemists and military experts have switched to the Alice Group, and their magical performance in the field of chemical industry, Just like their miraculous appearances, they are full of mystery and unpredictable.
Prior to this, the DuPont consortium naturally did not think of getting the Alice Group's things through other means, but after failing countless times and finally getting a stern "warning" from the Alice Group, the DuPont consortium finally got honest, and they could only accept the fact that the Alice Group was not only stronger than them, but also a role they could not provoke.
But just after they reluctantly but helplessly accepted the fate of the second millennium, the Alice Group was willing to work with their DuPont consortium to study chemistry together? At this moment, little Dupont didn't know if he was crazy or Alice was crazy.
If the DuPont consortium has mastered a new chemical technology, then it will definitely cover this technology tightly and never let anyone see it, so what does the Alice Group mean by what it is doing now?
"Mr. Zhang Lan, what you said is true?" The more I thought about it, the more excited I became, and little Dupont's voice trembled like a fallen leaf in autumn, "I don't know what you mean by chemical industry......"
"That's what you think." Zhang Lan smiled. …,
Rumble!
Little DuPont was completely messy, grabbed Zhang Lan's hand in a gaffe, and spoke incoherently excitedly, "Mr. Zhang Lan, are you telling the truth?" Is what you say really true? I...... I...... I don't know how to express my feelings at this moment, but allow me to express to you the highest respect for me and my family, and to trust that from now on our DuPont family will be the most loyal friends of the Alice Group. ”
Excessive excitement made little DuPont so excited that he even forgot the wise saying in the mall that "the more you get, the more you give", and forgot to think about what the Alice Group needs to take out the most urgent needs of the DuPont consortium and cooperate with the DuPont consortium, so what kind of price does the DuPont consortium need to pay?
I don't know if little DuPont is a little "fraternity" in itself, or this guy is too excited, this guy grabbed Zhang Lan's hand, which made Zhang Lan feel creepy, that kind of feeling that made the rotten girls scream in horror after seeing it, although Zhang Lan would rather have misunderstood, but at this moment, this feeling actually made Zhang Lan have an urge to escape...... Don't you see goosebumps on your buddy's arms?
"You're welcome," Zhang Lan smiled very reservedly, "Mr. DuPont Jr., what needs to be explained is that if we want to achieve this kind of cooperation, the DuPont family must not pay a small ......."
Zhang Lan's words were the time to pull little DuPont out of the excitement, and he took a few deep breaths, feeling that his thoughts were barely stable, and then little DuPont said to Zhang Lan, "Mr. Zhang Lan, please tell me your conditions." ”
"That's for the best." Zhang Lan smiled and nodded, then raised her head to look at the sky, and suggested, "Little Mr. DuPont, the weather is so good today, shall we talk here?" If you don't mind, let's go to the pool and talk together. ”
The weather is really good, there is not even a trace of clouds in the clear sky, although it is already autumn, the fierce sea breeze is blowing, but standing on the pure steel flight deck, it still gives people a feeling as if they are in summer, little DuPont is very formal wearing a suit, the kind of formal wear, too excited before, Zhang Lan did not say, the excited little DuPont did not care much, but now with Zhang Lan's reminder, little DuPont was stunned to find that his body has been soaked with sweat!
"Yes, it's best to go to the pool." Zhang Lan's suggestion made little Dupont nod again and again.
Although this is an aircraft carrier, it is true, but one thing that must be confirmed is that this is first of all a private "yacht", followed by an aircraft carrier, since it is a private yacht, then naturally everything is to make the owner comfortable, the aircraft carrier is a huge steel city floating on the sea, the most important thing is space, when designing this aircraft carrier, Alice designed several large indoor swimming pools on it, and even has a swimming pool with a roof that can be opened and closed, and the roof can be closed when the weather is bad, It becomes a large indoor swimming pool, but if you want to soak up the warmth of the sun, you can also open the top cover and sunbathe when you are tired of swimming...... This is indeed a treatment that only the super-rich can enjoy.
…………………………………………
While Zhang Lan and little Dupont were swimming in the huge pool, a few of them were frowning and meditating.
Zhang Lan is not a good talker, and has a weird temper, how should the banquet be held, and how to ensure that it is not cold, so that the guests present will not be embarrassed by Zhang Lan's non-cooperation, but I feel sorry for Director Card, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the banquet, Card and his team have held a meeting for more than four hours to discuss this issue, but unfortunately, until now, they have not discussed a satisfactory result-
